I too had memorised my VIN after entering into marinetraffic.com everyday for just under 2 months its really not that hard to remember after a couple of times.

Mine finally appeared on Trace and Trace, on-board Bess, which arrives on the 20th next month in Port Kembla. Better late than never.........Let the tracking begin. VIN already memorised

Just got a call from my VW dealer, telling me that my new Polo is getting built next week

- I was extreamly excited until they said that it should arrive in Australia in September not December as i was previously told.

I am sooooooo excited!!!! can't wait to get the VIN and track it

I was never able to log into the tracking website, just keep trying each day though.

Yours has to come all the way from Deutchsland, whereas ours are from South Africa. I think mine only took just over 2 weeks to arrive in Melbourne after departing Durban.
